Our weekend at "The Mountain"

This past weekend we ventured over to Mt. Rainier National Park for hiking, camping, and sightseeing. It was absolutely beautiful and the weather couldn't have been more perfect. We all enjoyed being together in the GREAT outdoors. Following are a few pictures from our excursion. We will add detail and captions to the pictures within the next day or so. Possibly for Family Home Evening?! Anyway, enjoy!

















 

Our little sand digger

As Cambri's interests develop right along with her personality, she never fails to surprise us as she reveals what her interests are. About two weeks ago when Cameron was in Arizona for a Deloitte intern conference, Cambri and I headed to Richmond "beach" with the Jensens. Cambri spent most of her time lounging in her little bathing suit on the beach towel that I brought for her. I surrounded her by toys but to no avail she was not very interested. She would much rather crawl around. Particularly off the towel so she began digging in the dirt/sand and was loving every minute of it. I sat by her side and watched her dig for quite sometime. She had not made any attempts on eating the sand up to that point so I figured she would not. Needless to say she tricked me. She ended up getting a handful of sand and put it in her mouth...not just once but a few times. I watched her face for an expression of disgust but one never came. She seemed to enjoy something about the sand. Perhaps the texture, taste, unfamiliarity?!? Who knows! I was not encouraging the behavior by any means but she managed to do it a few times before I resorted to feeding her lunch.

 

A Fresh Start!

As we anticipated our move to Seattle, WA for the summer, as well as the much larger move that will occur next summer, we decided now would be a good time to begin a family blog. Neither of us have kept a blog or done anything of the sorts so this will be a new experience. Our goal is to keep it updated regularly. The ideal would be several times a week but I suppose a good start is weekly. We hope that you will enjoy the many posts and pictures that are to follow of the happenings and growth of our little family.

P.S. We really hope that our relatives will find this to be useful as a way to receive updates about our family but especially to watch Cambri as she grows and develops into a little lady.

 

Welcome to our blog

We hope that our family and friends enjoy this blog as much as we do. We hope you will add your comments to our posts so we can stay better connected. See you around!
